With at least 28 elective million operations delayed during the first three months of the COVID‐19 pandemic, the number of patients who will require surgery after a previous SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is likely to increase rapidly1. Operating on patients with an active perioperative SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is now known to carry a very high pulmonary complication and mortality rate2. Urgent information is needed to guide whether postponing surgery in patients with a previous SARS‐CoV‐2 infection leads to a clinical benefit, and the optimal length of delay.

Abstract
With at least 28 elective million operations delayed during the first three months of the COVID‐19 pandemic, the number of patients who will require surgery after a previous SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is likely to increase rapidly1. Operating on patients with an active perioperative SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is now known to carry a very high pulmonary complication and mortality rate2. Urgent information is needed to guide whether postponing surgery in patients with a previous SARS‐CoV‐2 infection leads to a clinical benefit, and the optimal length of delay.File in questo prodotto:
